Dependent (or Transfer of Fee Waiver Benefit) Option

Student Financial Aid may be affected by the use of fee waiver. Contact the Financial Aid and Scholarship Office at the campus that your dependent is attending to see how financial aid will be affected by participation in the Fee Waiver Program. At CSU, Chico, the number is 530-898-6451

What you need to do...

Employees who transfer their fee waiver benefit to a dependent need to submit a Fee Waiver Application for Dependents (PDF) to Human Resources (zip 0010). Students must apply to and be in a matriculated degree program at the CSU campus they plan to attend.

Process Steps

Employee submits a timely Fee Waiver Application for Dependents (PDF) to Human Resources (zip 0010). One application per term of enrollment. Human Resources will send a copy to Undergraduate Admissions or Graduate Studies.

Employee receives notification of application status prior to term fee payment deadline; student is responsible for any fees remaining.

Eligibility is determined in two parts:

Eligibility of the employee for the fee waiver benefit

Eligibility of the courses (- is the student enrolled in state-funded courses?)

How do I know the process is complete and the fee waiver was applied?

You received notification that your application was approved

When the student enrolls in courses, the fees due are this (and not the full fees).
